Abstract: A thermoelectric power supply converts thermal energy into a high power output with voltages in the Volt-range for powering a microelectronic device and comprises an in-plane thermoelectric generator, a cross-plane thermoelectric generator, an initial energy management assembly, a voltage converter and a final energy management assembly. The in-plane thermoelectric generator produces a high thermoelectric voltage at low power output. The initial energy management assembly rectifies and limits the thermoelectric voltage and stores and releases power to the voltage converter. The cross-plane thermoelectric generator generates a high power output at low thermoelectric voltage. Once activated by the in-plane thermoelectric generator, the voltage converter multiplies the low thermoelectric voltage output of the cross-plane thermoelectric generator. After multiplying the relatively low voltage provided by the cross-plane thermoelectric generator, the voltage converter supplies electrical energy to the final energy management assembly which rectifies and limits the voltage and stores and releases energy to an external power receiver such as the microelectronic device.

Abstract: A data processor maps input data symbols to be communicated onto a predetermined number of sub-carrier signals of an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexed (OFDM) symbol. The data processor includes an interleaver memory which reads-in the predetermined number of data symbols for mapping onto the OFDM sub-carrier signals. The interleaver memory reads-out the data symbols on to the OFDM sub-carriers to effect the mapping, the read-out being in a different order than the read-in, the order being determined from a set of addresses, with the effect that the data symbols are interleaved on to the sub-carrier signals. The set of addresses are generated from an address generator which comprises a linear feedback shift register and a permutation circuit. A generator polynomial for the linear feedback shift register is     R  i  ¹    8   =   R   i  -  1   ¹    0      R   i  -  1   ¹    4   ,     and a permutation code is provided for permuting the order of the content of the register stages. The permutation code has been established by simulation analysis to optimise communication performance via typical radio channels. As such, a 1K operating is provided with an interleaver, which can interleave data symbols onto approximately one thousand sub-carriers of OFDM symbols for an OFDM modulated system such as a Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB) standard such as DVB-Terrestria12 (DVB-T2) or DVB-Cable2.

Abstract: Provided is a manufacturing method for a pneumatic tire including the steps of: shaping a cylindrical film formed of a thermoplastic resin or a thermoplastic elastomer composite in which a thermoplastic resin is blended with an elastomer, folding the film into a sheet shape, laminating rubber layers on both surfaces of the folded film, opening the laminate of the film and the rubber layers into a cylindrical shape, fitting the laminate thus opened on a tire making drum, forming the tire pneumatic tire including the film as an air permeation preventing layer, and curing the uncured tire. In the method, when the rubber layers are laminated on the both surfaces of the folded film, positions of the rubber layers in a width direction are displaced from each other such that an end portion of one of the rubber layers is arranged to protrude from an end portion of the film and an end portion of the other one of the rubber layer is arranged on an inner side, in the width direction, of the protruding end portion of the one of the rubber layers, and the protruding end portion of the one of the rubber layers is caused to cover the end portion of the other one of the rubber layers in a state where the laminate is fitted on the tire making drum. By employing the manufacturing method for the pneumatic tire, troubles due to a splice portion of the rubber layers can be reduced.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an isoxazole derivative, the compound of formula (I) herein after referred to as GIT27-NO, which is the NO-donating structurally modified form of (S,R)-3-phenyl-4,5-dihydro-5-isoxazole acetic acid, herein after referred to as VGX-1027. Treatment of three tumor cell lines, rat astrocytoma C6, mouse fibrosarcoma L929, and mouse melanoma B16 cells with GIT27-NO resulted in a significant reduction of cell respiration and of number of viable cells, while VGX-1027 was completely ineffective. Hemoglobin, which act as NO-scavenger, restored cell viability, thus indicating the NO-mediated tumoricidal effect of compound (I). GIT27-NO triggered apoptotic cell death in L929 cell cultures, while autophagic cell death is mainly responsible for the diminished viability of C6 and B16 cells. Moreover, GIT27-NO induced the production of reactive oxygen species which can be neutralized by antioxidant N-acetyl cysteine (NAC), indicating that reactive oxygen species (ROS) are at least partly involved in the reduction of cell viability. The anti-tumor activity of GIT27-NO is mediated through activation of MAP kinases (ERK1/2, p38 and JNK) in cell-specific manner. The role of MAP kinases was further confirmed by specific inhibitors of these molecules, PD98059, SB202190, and SP600125. Finally, in vivo treatment with GIT27-NO significantly reduced tumor growth in syngeneic C57BL/6 mice implanted with B16 melanoma.
